Aisaia 8
1 Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, “Dia meloa bioi bagade lale, amoga dunu noga: le idima: ne agoane dedemu, ‘Ma: ihi Sia: ila: ile Ha: isaba: se ‘(dawaloma: ne da hedolo wamolale, gaguli masa)’
Then Yahweh said to me, “Make a large signboard. And write clearly on it, ‘Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz’ [which means ‘quickly (plunder/take by force) and steal everything’].”
2 Amo dedei dafawaneyale ba: ma: ne, ba: su dunu moloidafa aduna ilegemu. Amo da gobele salasu ouligisu ea dio amo Iulaia amola Segalaia (Yibeligaia egefe) ilegema.
[So] I requested Uriah the [Supreme] Priest and Jeberekiah’s son Zechariah, men who were both honest/trustworthy witnesses, to watch me as I was doing that.
3 Fa: no, na uda da abula agui ba: i. Ania dunu mano lalelegeloba, Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, “Dia manoma ‘Ma: ihi Sia: ila: ile Ha: isiaba: se” dio asulima.
Then I had sex with [EUP] [my wife, who was] a prophetess, and she became pregnant and [then] gave birth to a son. Then Yahweh said to me, “Give him the name Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz (which means ‘suddenly attacked, quickly conquered’),
4 E da fonobahadi fawane asigilale, ‘Ada’ amola ‘Ame’ amo sia: musa: dawa: mu. Be hidadea, amo sia: mu hamedei galea, Asilia hina bagade da Dama: sagase amola Samelia, amo ea muni amola liligi ida: iwane wamolale, gaguli masunu.”
because before he is old enough to say ‘papa’ or ‘mama’, the King of Assyria will [come with his army and] quickly take away all the valuable things in Damascus and in Samaria.”
5 Hina Gode da bu nama sia: i.
Yahweh spoke to me again and said, “[Tell the people of Judah, ]
6 E da amane sia: i, “Yuda dunu da Hano Siloua: me ea olofoi hano amo higa: i dagoi. Amola ilia da hina bagade Lisini amola hina bagade Biga amoma beda: iba: le, yagugusa.
‘[I have taken good care of] you people, but you have rejected that, [thinking that] my help was very little, like [MET] the little canal through which water flows from the Gihon Spring into Jerusalem. Instead, you have been happy [to request help from] King Rezin and King Pekah.
7 Amaiba: le, Na, Hina Gode, da Asilia hina bagade amola ea dadi gagui dunu huluane, amo Yuda dunu fi ilima doagala: musa: oule misunu. Iufala: idisi Hano da neda: le, ea bega: nabale aduga: le daha amo defele ilia da misunu.
Therefore, I will cause the people of Judah to be attacked by [the powerful army of] the King of Assyria, which will be [like] a great flood from the [Euphrates] River. Their soldiers will [be everywhere in your country, like] a river that overflows all its banks.
8 Ilia da Yuda sogega hano bagade neda: i agoane misini, bagade heda: le, liligi huluane dedebomu.” Gode da nini esala! Ea ougia ligia gadole da ninia soge gaga: sa.
Those soldiers will go all over Judah— [like a river whose water] [MET] rises as high as a person’s neck. Their army will spread over the land [quickly], like an eagle, and they will cover your entire land! But I will be with you!’”
9 Dilia fifi asi gala dunu fi huluane beda: iwane gilisima! Soge sedaga fi huluane, nabima! Gegemusa: momagema, be beda: ma! Dafawane! Momagema, be beda: iwane dawa: ma!
Listen, all you [people in] distant countries! [You can] prepare to attack Judah. [You can] prepare [for battle, and shout your] war-cries, but your [armies will] be crushed/shattered!
10 Gegemusa: ilegema! Be dilia ilegesu da dafamu. Baligiliwane fada: i sia: ma! Be dilia momagesu da hamedei. Bai Gode da ninima esala.
[You can] prepare for what you will do [to attack Judah], but what you plan to do will not happen! You will not succeed, because God is with us!
11 Hina Gode da Ea gasa bagade amoga, na da Yuda dunu eno ilima mae fa: no bobogema: ne sisane sia: i.
Yahweh strongly warned me [MTY] not to act like the [other] people in Judah did. He said to me,
12 E da amane sia: i, “Di da amo dunu ilia ilegesu amoma mae gilisima, amola liligi amoma ilia da beda: i, amoba: le di mae beda: ma.
“Do not say that everything that people do is conspiring/rebelling [against the government], like [other] people say, and do not (be afraid of/worry about) the things that other people are afraid of.
13 Na, Hina Gode Bagadedafa da Hadigi (Houli)! Amo mae gogolema! Di da eno dunuma mae beda: ne, Nama fawane beda: ma.
[I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, am the one you should consider to be holy. And I am the one you should fear, the one you should revere.
14 Na da baligili Hadigidafa. Amaiba: le, Na da fedege agoane, igi amoga dunu da emo udasisu gala. Na da sani amoga Yuda amola Isala: ili dunu amola Yelusaleme dunu daha.
I will protect you(sg). [But as for] the [other] people [MTY] in Israel and Judah, I will be [like] [MET] a stone that causes people to stumble, a rock that causes them to fall down. [And as for] the people of Jerusalem, I will be [like] [MET] a trap or a snare [DOU].
15 Dunu bagohame da dafane, goudai dagoi ba: mu. Ilia da amo saniga sa: imu.”
Many [people] will stumble and fall down and never get up again. They will experience great troubles; they will be captured [by their enemies].”
16 Dilia! Na adoba: su dunu! Dilia sia: , amo Gode da nama i, amo noga: le ouligima!
[So, I say to you who are my disciples], seal up this scroll on which I have written the messages that God has given to me, and give his instructions to [others] who have accompanied me.
17 Hina Gode da Ea fi dunu E mae ba: ma: ne, wamoaligi dagoi. Be na da Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: be, amola E da fa: no misunu hou amo noga: le ouligisu na dawa:
I will wait to see what Yahweh [will do]. He has rejected the descendants [MTY] of Jacob, but I will confidently expect him to help me.
18 Na amola mano amo Hina Gode da nama i, da lela. Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ea Fisu da Saione Goumiga gala, amola E da nini sia: ne iasu esala agoane Isala: ili fi dunu ilima asunasi dagoi.
I and the children that Yahweh has given to me are [like] signs to warn [the people of] Israel; we are warnings from the Commander of the armies of angels the one who lives [in his temple] on Zion Hill [in Jerusalem].
19 Be eno dunu da dilia udigili ba: la: lusu dunu amola gesami dasu (amo da gesami hea: sa amola hehedosa) amoma adole ba: ma: ne sia: mu. Be abuliba: le esala dunu fidima: ne, bogoi dunu amoma adole ba: ma: bela: ?”
Some people may urge you(pl) to (consult/go and talk with) those who talk with the spirits of dead people or with those who say that they receive messages from those spirits. They whisper and mutter [about what we should do in the future]. But God is [RHQ] the one whom we should ask to guide us! It is ridiculous [RHQ] for people who are alive to request spirits of dead people to tell us [what we should do]!
20 Be dilia bu adole ima, “Gode Ea sema amola Ea dedei huluane amo fawane dawa: ma. Gesami dasu dunu ilia sia: maedafa nabima! Eno dunu da Gode Ea sia: defele hame sia: sea, amo dunu da hadigi hame, ogogosu fawane dawa: ma.”
Pay attention to God’s instructions and teaching! If people do not say things that agree with what God teaches us, [what they say is worthless]. [It is as though] those people are in darkness.
21 Isala: ili dunu da ha: i nabawane amola da: i dione, udigili soge ganodini lalumu. Ilia da ha: iba: le amola ougiba: le, ba: le gadole ilia Hina bagade amola Godema gagabusu aligima: ne sia: mu.
They will wander through the land, worried/discouraged and hungry. And when they become [very] hungry, they will become very angry. They will look up [toward heaven] and curse God and [will also] curse their king.
22 Amasea, ilia da osoboga ba: le guduli, be bidi hamoi amola gasi amola beda: ma: ne gasi amoga Gode da ili sefasilala, amo fawane ba: mu.
They will look around the land and see only trouble/distress and darkness and things that cause them to despair. And [then] they will be thrown into the very black darkness [of hell]. (questioned)
